A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Clarina and I am a fun, caring 27 year old. I love interacting with children of all ages and enjoy watching them grow. It is my top priority to make your child feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand the great influence that caregivers have on children and I do my best to be an excellent example to them by communicating and treating them with respect. I bring a nurturing spirit and find great value in using encouraging and kind words around all my children. I have been with my current nanny family for 3.5 years (she is now 4) but is in school full time so starting to look for another family that I can love on and grow with.

A little bit about me
My name is Sasha Alvarez and am currently a 3rd year at the University of California, Santa Barbara! From babysitting within my own family and community to coaching surfing for Sea League, I've found immense joy in nurturing and guiding young minds. One of my passions is fostering bilingualism, as I am fluent in Spanish and English. Being CPR certified ensures that I can handle any situation with calmness and competence. Additionally, I actively run an outreach program for younger students, which has deepened my understanding of child development and the importance of individualized care.

A little bit about me
My name is Marilu, I consider myself to be a patient, compassionate, energetic and creative person. My passion for children started at a very young age caring for my younger siblings. Since then, I have been molding my educational path with joy and adventures that every child has brought into my life. Having said that, I take very serious the health, safety and happiness of every child in my care. I make sure that your child feels safe, loved and most of all respected. I love teaching your children open-ended arts and crafts using various materials. As an artist I believe art is essential in the development of a child to instill creativity in their lives, setting a great foundation for future development. I also love to use the environment as a tool to teach children self and environmental awareness through exploration and play. My priority while caring for your child is to help your child grow being confident, feeling cared for including your furry family members and home too!
